the correct english is "a faithful replica of something that never existed"
faithful here means 'faithful to the original', -- i.e. "accurate".
maybe something like 一個從來不存在東西的真實複製...
can you correct my chinese?

应该是俏皮话吧：
A: It must be a replica.
B: Yes, it is a faithful replica of nothing that ever existed.

It means the entire thing is a scam. Someone fooled people into believing that something existed, then he fooled them into believing he has a faithful replica. He's probably referring to the DaVinci Code.
Examples:
The Da Vinci Code.
The Book of Mormon.
